snopes.com: Pancake Mix and Allergic Reaction - this was in my email this morning; a story about a teenager having a bad reaction to mold in outdated pancake mix. Probably a good idea to check dates on stuff before you buy it and use it within a reasonable time.

Yikes I really blew my diet today ! I had a deluxe breakfast at MD's and for supper we had pizza and various other items. The deluxe breakfast is 1,100 calories and I guestimate the other stuff to be at least a 1,000. Damn I better not do that again for a good long while … Continue reading Yikes I really blew my diet today !→

I had my appointment with the Dietician this afternoon. I didn't gain any weight nor did I loose any. We discussed my eating and exercise behaviors and concluded that I need to cut back on the snacks; especially at work. I took my own BP on a do-it-yourself machine and was pleased to see some … Continue reading appointment with the Dietician→

Slow day at work; I finished a couple spreadsheets and now my pile is empty unless I do some filing. I will leave early today because I have an appointment with the Dietician; guess I picked a good day for that.

Some more true confessions..... Sometimes I am somewhat forgetful. Examples would be when I go to the store to buy milk, bread, ham, and cheese; I might come back without the ham. Or other times I might go to the store for a specific reason and when I get there I start walking around the … Continue reading more true confessions…..→

Internet Searching Benefits Middle-Aged, Older People | AHN | October 15, 2008 - this article says web surfing is good for the brain ! From my extensive experience, I would agee as long as you don't do it too much. I also suspect that spending too much time on line can exacerbate things like ADD.

I've been busy as hell all morning with a large depreciation spreadsheet. Now it's about time for lunch and a walk.

Warning About Pimple Ball With Bell Toy » Dogster for the Love of Dog Blog - my friend Caryn sent me this via email and I figured I would pass it along to anyone who loves dogs, and that should be anyone and everyone !

Back from lunch now after a 35 min walk. I also walked in the morning before work. I need to ramp up my exercise and make sure I don't overeat as the past two weeks I have been a bit slack in that area, although not entirely so.

I'm working on this very large spreadsheet; an inventory for a liquor store. Amazing how much booze can be in one place, LOL ! While working on this list I came across a wine called "Fat Bastard" ! Did I read that correctly (I am transcribing a hand written list, poor penmanship) ? I did … Continue reading Fat Bastard !→

I'm feeling poorly today; went to the doctor and got some snot pills and nasal spray and also got my Zocor Rx refilled. I hate being sick ! Not only is it not pleasant it also gets in the way of getting work done; and I am getting bogged down at work !!
